# 8.40 Maintenance Release 4

Enhancements or bugs resolved in this version are as follows.

 

Important Notes:

Command Centre version numbers comprise a major build version and a minor build version, (e.g., for version vEL8.40.2063, 8.40 is the major build and 2063 is the minor build). Server and workstation major builds must always match, however the minor build on the workstation can be equal to or lower than the server minor build.

This feature is intended to ease the effort required for upgrades by allowing a server only maintenance upgrade. Some maintenance fixes are workstation based and may require a workstation upgrade to resolve an issue. Sites that are using ClickOnce installation of Command Centre and Configuration Client will automatically upgrade the clients.

 

Example: For this Maintenance Release, sites that are already running Full Release version of v8.40 Command Centre Server, can choose to leave their MSI workstations running Full Release version vEL8.40.1252 if they are not affected by the bugs fixed in “Workstation”. Please refer to the “Fixed In” column in the below table for full details.
